       Onlookers did a double take when the bare biker made his rush-hour trip in a chilly 6°C

       The rider, who steadied himself with his left foot on the kerb as he waited in a cycle lane for the lights to change, had on a white helmet to ensure his safety.

       James Reynolds took a snap of the exhibitionist — who appeared to be in his 30s — in Grays Inn Road near King’s Cross, central London.

       Construction worker James, 33, from Lincs, said: “I was flabbergasted when I first spotted him. I thought, ‘Am I really seeing what I’m seeing?’.

       “He had a helmet on so at least he was being safe. Perhaps he went naked for a dare. Maybe he’s a naturist. Who knows?

       “It was a bit cold to be doing what he was doing, though, so fair play to him. It’s only the human body after all.”

       James posted a snap online which collected hundreds of comments.
